Blocked dates in my calendar

[Victoria308]

Hi,

I had to cancel a reservation due to repair works. My current guest would like to stay a little longer and the repairs have been pushed a little later but the dates are blocked in my calendar. Can you deblock them?

Hello @Victoria308,

The blocked dates are one of the penalties Airbnb imposes for unilaterally cancelling a reservation.

If the reason for cancellation is one of their extenuating circumstances, listed below, then you should contact Airbnb support to explain the situation.

Log in and click on "Help" and then type "contact airbnb" in the "Ask a question ..." box. Then click on the "I want to contact Airbnb" link.
Then click on the "Contact page" link near the end of the page.

You can also type "contact airbnb" in the "Search the community" box on these forum pages where you posted your question. Scroll down a little in the list of suggestions that appears and click on the "Contact Airbnb: A Community Help Guide[UPDATED]" one. That lists phone numbers and ways to contact them via Twitter or Facebook.

Steve.
